Hospital Cleaner Impersonates Medical Doctor to Deceive and Exploit Female Victim
The police in Ogun State have arrested one VICTOR CLETUS on allegation of parading himself as a medical doctor and sexually exploiting a young female victim.
Twenty-eight-year-old VICTOR CLETUS was arrested following a complaint lodged by an unnamed victim, who claimed that the man contacted her on Snapchat and presented himself as a surgeon at the Babcock University Teaching Hospital.
The Police Public Relations Officer said the woman later confided in the suspect her medical condition involving a lump in her right breast, which he exploited to demand for money for surgery, and also subjected her to sexual exploitation.
The PPRO said when they woman decided to make inquiry at the Babcock University Teaching Hospital, she was shocked to learn that VICTOR CLETUS was not a doctor but a cleaner in the hospital.
According to a statement; "The Ogun State Police Command has arrested a 28yrs old serial impostor, Victor Cletus, male, who callously defrauded and sexually exploited a young female victim under the guise of being a medical doctor.
"The Command warns the public — especially young females — to exercise heightened caution on social media platforms, where criminals disguise themselves with false identities to lure, manipulate and extort innocent persons.
"The arrest followed a distressing report lodged by the victim, who narrated how the suspect contacted her on Snapchat and falsely presented himself as a surgeon at Babcock University Teaching Hospital. Believing his fabricated credentials, she confided in him a medical concern involving a lump in her right breast.
"Taking advantage of her vulnerability, the suspect fraudulently demanded an unspecified amount of money as a supposed operation fee, and deceitfully instructed her to meet him for a surgical procedure on 18/11/2025. Instead of offering any medical help, he sexually abued her and also stole money from her Opay account.
"The victim’s suspicion grew the following day when the fake doctor persisted in demanding sexual intimacy without conducting any medical procedure. She independently contacted Babcock University Teaching Hospital and was shocked to learn that Victor Cletus is not a doctor but a cleaner in the hospital. The suspect is being investigated and will be prosecuted accordingly."
The PPRO further noted that the Commissioner of Police, CP Lanre Ogunlowo, Ph.D, "condemns the heinous act and warns online predators and criminal impostors that the Command will not tolerate any form of exploitation, deception, or sexual violence against females. He urges young females to remain circumspect and be weary of trusting strangers with personal or medical information online."
